Re: Stus-List WIRING PLANS
By the way, if any Canucks out there are looking for an inexpensive pair of ratcheting crimpers for 10-22 AWG insulated wire terminals, Canadian Tire has them on sale this week for $10.50! Even the non-sale price of $29.99 is good, compared to, for example, the Ancor version at $80 – $100. http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/20-10-ratcheting-crimper-0207568p.html#.VS5mNU10zIU I have to say I haven’t tried these, but they look almost identical to the $30 no-name set I picked up from Princess Auto about 3 years ago ... which has worked flawlessly. Much, much better tool than those cheap flat steel crimper-strippers you typically see that are almost impossible to get a good crimp without ripping the insulation on the terminals.

Highly recommend the Daniels Crimping Tool. I am by trade and aircraft electrician and this is the tool I use to do my splice/crimping. I also use environmental crimpers which are a bit more expensive and require a heat gun to heat shrink the weatherproof sleeve.
